I don't know if I spelled that right. It's a big fruit, shape of a ball. Red, and seeds inside. Does anyone know how to eat them?

DON'T SPOIL THE TASTE OF THIS FRUIT BY MAKING A RECEIPE OUT OF THIS LOVELY FRUIT.
JUST PEEL IT WITH YOUR NAILS DON'T USE A KNIFE,YOU MAY MAKE A MESS BY CUUTING THE LOVELY RUBY-LIKE SEEDS. JUST PEEL OPEN THE FRUIT COLLECT THE SEEDS. ADD A PINCE OF SALT (IF YOU LIKE) AND THEN EAT THEM UP
TELL ME HOW THEY ARE iT'S INDIAN YOU KNOW

Oh yes! I just tried them for the first time last year. There are all kinds of things you can do with them. There are tons of recipes for pomegranates on the net. I have a great recipe for pomegranate margaritas, here goes:
(SERVES: 10)
ingredients
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
2 1/2 cups pomegranate juice (see Note)
1 cup aƱejo tequila
3/4 cup fresh lime juice
10 thin strips or slices of cucumber, for garnish
In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and water and simmer over high heat, stirring, until the sugar has dissolved; let cool completely.
In a tall pitcher, combine the sugar syrup with the pomegranate juice, tequila and lime juice. Stir well, fill the pitcher with ice and stir again. Pour into 10 margarita, martini or cordial glasses, garnish each with a cucumber strip and serve.
NOTES To make fresh pomegranate juice, cut the pomegranates in half crosswise and use a citrus juicer, preferably a large one, to extract the juice. One large pomegranate yields 1/3 cup of juice, which can be frozen for up to 6 months
I hope you find something you like, it's a great food item and very versatile. Have a good day!
